Ignition system with dual electrodes and lighter tube assembly

Abstract

An improved ignition system for igniting combustible gas used in cooking and other types of devices. The ignition system includes an ignition mechanism having a spark generator that is electrically connected to two electrodes. When the spark generator is activated, a spark is produced between the electrodes which ignites combustible gas emanating from a burner. The ignition system also includes a lighter tube assembly having a lighter tube that extends from a main burner to secondary burners. The lighter tube is connected to a dual valve which provides gas flow to both the lighter tube and to the main burner. An ignition mechanism is provided which ignites the gas emanating from both the main burner and lighter tube, thus enabling the secondary burners to subsequently be ignited via the lighter tube.
